[quote=JimTomes]The cat is a 2000 boyer mark IV. There are no soft spots in the hulls and all appears to be solid. The boat has not been sailed in four years. A older man bought it and was scared first time out. He had been a tornado sailor for years and had sailed a A-class back in 1973. I also got the 1973 hulls in the deal. They went right to the dump. The gentleman had died and his family from England were in Long Beach to settle his estate. The boat was the last to go and the auction was for only one day. I lucked out. I was too concerned about the strength of the boat. It sure is light, I can carry a hull with one arm on my shoulder. I too am concerned with the mast strength. It is a tall mast and tapered at the top. I don't want to hurt the boat. I do feel that I can control the added sail area and it would be one crazy fast rig on the water. Well those are my thoughts and I value the thoughts of others on this forum. So thank you all for any feed back. [/quote]
